1966
Person Interviewed: Darlette Forman (Mother)
Date of Birth: 1-2-1959
Song: It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World- James Brown

Reasoning for Liking the Song
Weird choice for my mom being that she was a woman right? However, this wasn’t her favorite song, this was a song that she remembers most. This song was released when my mother was about seven. She told me this song was constantly played in her home because her dad loved this song. So, this song was most memorable to her.
